The girl looked just like Jiang Yuan, but the difference was the clothes she wore, the color of her pupils, and the hat she wore with the character "Yan" on it.
With the Book of Life and Death in his left hand and the Pen of Yama in his right, his eyes were icy cold, as if he had fallen into an abyss of ice, showing contempt for everything and looking down on everyone else.
The woman was taken aback and took two steps back in fear.
Yama, the King of Hell.
Jiang Yuan is... is Yama, the King of Hell!
If the King of Hell wants someone dead at midnight, who dares to keep them alive until dawn!
She's actually the King of Hell!
The Book of Life and Death quickly flipped through its pages, then stopped.
Jiang Yuan lowered her head, looking at the name displayed in the Book of Life and Death, and parted her thin lips slightly, "Name, Ling Jin'er, 48 years old..."
Her voice was cold and ethereal, as if it came from a very distant place.
Ling Jin'er's face was pale, and Jiang Yuan was thinking about the first half of her life so far.
She was born into a poor family; her mother was a gambler, and her father was mentally unstable and obsessed with spiritual practices.
The family was so poor they couldn't even afford to eat, yet one of them was still obsessed with gambling. Even though he had already lost everything, he still firmly believed that one day he could turn his life around and win back what he had lost.
The other one was talking incoherently, saying that he would definitely make a fortune in this line of work one day, and that cultivating Taoism was the path that God had shown him.
Her mother said that being named Jin would bring wealth, ensuring she would never lack gold and silver jewelry and that her wealth would flow in continuously. Her father, on the other hand, said that being named Jin'er meant she was born with gold in her destiny and would have a bright future.
The name Ling Jin'er comes from this.
And that's the kind of family she grew up in.
Later, her mother really did gamble away all her money, and even had two fingers chopped off, but she still firmly believed that she would become rich.
Her mother met a wealthy older man at the casino. The older man pursued her passionately, which caused her to start to dislike her father and insist on a divorce so she could live a better life with the older man. Her father had no choice but to agree to the divorce. However, at the same time, her mother also swindled him out of the house.
She and her father ended up on the streets. Later, her father took her to various cities, living a life of hardship and sleeping in the open.
Her father was still obsessed with Taoist cultivation, but the good thing was that he seemed to have some talent in it and was very perceptive.
After he started telling fortunes and doing feng shui, their lives improved. She could eat fresh and delicious meals, no longer having to squat outside restaurants eating leftovers that others didn't want. She could also wear pretty dresses and go to school.
Later, her father became more and more successful, and more and more people sought him out for fortune telling and feng shui consultations. So many people paid high prices to have him consult with her. At that time, she secretly vowed that she would be as successful as her father in the future, so she also began to cultivate herself by her father's side.
She started following her father around, doing feng shui and fortune telling for wealthy business owners. She saw a lot of things, which made her quite precocious. When she saw her peers being naive at school, she thought they were all idiots.
Later, she dropped out of school.
Because school was so boring, and her classmates and teachers were all so boring, she couldn't connect with them at all, and they had nothing in common to talk about.
She practiced her skills under her father's guidance, and occasionally started taking on small clients on her own.
Later, a very important person came to her house.
Jiang Rentian is a legendary figure who rose from humble beginnings through his own hard work.
He brought many, many valuable gifts to their house and respectfully addressed her father as Master.
The gifts were very valuable, including gold, diamonds, and all sorts of luxury items she had only ever seen on television.
At that time, she was puzzled. Jiang Rentian was several years older than her father and his status was much higher than her father's, so why did she respectfully call her father "Master"?
Later, from their conversation, she learned that a remark her father made when he was young had helped Jiang Rentian.
Or perhaps it was because of her father's words that Jiang Rentian became who she is today.
Even before her father got married, he was already obsessed with cultivating Taoism. The first person he looked at was none other than Ning Chuxin.
According to what her father told her, when he first saw Ning Chuxin, he felt that she was extraordinary. She was blessed with good fortune and had the protection of immortals. If he could marry her, he would be rich and noble for the rest of his life.
Her father was also attracted to Ning Chuxin at the time. According to him, anyone who saw Ning Chuxin when she was young would be attracted to her.
Jiang Rentian overheard those words.
At that time, Jiang Rentian did not think that he was talking nonsense because he was still young, but instead humbly asked for his advice.
Seeing that someone believed him, her father began to analyze the situation for them, explaining in detail Ning Chuxin's auspicious appearance.
That's when the two got to know each other.
Her father only met Ning Chuxin once, and never saw her again after that, so he married her mother.
Jiang Rentian listened to her father's advice and began to pursue Ning Chuxin.
Unfortunately, he didn't succeed.
I heard her father say that Jiang Rentian was just starting out in his business and was only making some progress. He was nowhere near as successful as the Ning family, so marrying Ning Chuxin was considered a step up for him.
But later, her father offered Jiang Rentian a plan, which enabled him to win the heart of his beloved.
Afterwards, the two got married, and Jiang Rentian's business grew bigger and bigger.
Later, her father also went back to her hometown with her mother, and the two never saw each other again.
Later, around that time, Jiang Rentian probably found out that the feng shui master was the same one who had helped him before, so he brought gifts to visit him.
She was just a child then, only about ten years old, and she stood quietly to the side listening to their conversation.
She overheard that Jiang Rentian wanted her father to have his fortune told again.
Her father then made a request: he could calculate it, but Jiang Rentian would have to protect her for the rest of his life.
She didn't understand why she needed an outsider to protect her just for a fortune telling.
Later she understood that it was because she had revealed a secret, and not for the first time.
It was the third time.
The first time was when I was reading Ning Chuxin's fortune. At that time, her father had gone a little crazy because he had revealed some heavenly secrets, and he would occasionally talk nonsense.
According to her mother, she was attracted to her father because he was very handsome when he was young. Who doesn't love a handsome man? So she ignored his crazy side and pursued him intensely.
Later I realized that he was truly insane; his mind had become dull from practicing Taoism.
When I pursued her father, I must have been out of my mind, or perhaps I was blinded by love and overlooked his flaws.
Her mother also said that if she had known it would come to that, she would never have chosen her father or gotten married.
This is what her mother said in front of her and her father when she divorced him and went with that man.
She sensed regret in those few words.
Later, she and her father had heard news about her mother. They heard that the old man was a swindler who, after swindling her mother out of her house, sold her mother to an even older, lonely old man...
When she heard the news, she was unmoved, because it was her mother's choice.
